I take it that means there isn’t a solution?

Is there currently anyway to tell the software to display title and description on a page or in a post?

I agree. More documentaion on short codes would help – id like to have better use and control over title, description, etc.

Cool, i needed that, however – is it possible to link a slideshow of a gallery so that you click through to a page with the album – instead of having the click advance to the next image?

I have run into this before, I was using headway for a theme and the cause of the problem was a conflict with other plug-ins & a needed upgrade to my theme.

Troubleshooting:
Disable all other plug ins and try it again.
if it works enable your plug ins one at a time and see which one is in conflict.

If there is no change, make sure you are using the latest WP, Theme version, and NextGEN version. Upgrade as needed.

re-check your settings, and your PHP version as well.

On the gallery overview page run the plug in check.

if that does not work post the details of your set up here –
use the information in the block on the gallery overview page like so:
